I have been married for nearly 25 years with two adult children. I have
always felt that an annulment should be awarded only in rare
circumstances. I however find myself considering such a move.

During our dating / engagement all my relatives would remark, she
always smiles and never seeems to get angry at anyone.

My future mother in-law, of all people, warned me that I really did not
know her daughter. She said she had a bad temper. I did not take her
seriously, from the day of our wedding I have wished I had.

Either my wife demeanor has gotten worse or my patience has shortened
but I feel I have had enough.

I mentioned to both my children that I may divorce their mother, my
daughter said, "it's about time"

Do I have grounds for an annulment?

Thanks

Dear Tom,

You have to talk about annulment with a priest whose mind is in union
with the Church. Ask
him if you have grounds. Whatever his answer is, you will have more
grace to come to the
right decision, whatever it is. I should add that EWTN have a lotos good
programs on the difficulties of marriage. You might get into the habit of
listening to them. We live in a screwed up world.
